People in different countries enjoy their ice cream in many amazing ways. Here are a few unique ones to check out.
Japan
You will find mochi nearly everywhere in Japan, although you may think that you’re looking at macaroons at first. Mochi is shaped into small balls and wrapped with rice paste so it doesn’t melt.
Germany
Spaghettieis is a German dessert made by making vanilla ice cream look like spaghetti and adding strawberry sauce to mimic tomato sauce. Other ingredients may be added, like coconut to replace shredded parmesan cheese. How fun is this?
Italy
We can’t skip Italy’s famous gelato. It dates back to the ancient Roman times and has stood the test of time. Even today gelato is a beloved dessert choice, especially in the summer. It comes in so many different flavors!
Turkey
Dondurma is Turkish ice cream made with salep and mastic. It’s chewy like taffy but cold like ice cream, and a big hit among tourists who visit the country.
Cuba
The ice cream at Cuban “heladerias” are big and cheap. There are many flavors to choose from, but the most popular is called mantecado—a custard base with some cinnamon and nutmeg. It tastes like heaven!
